TRANSCRIPT
Good morning everybody, today we are waiting in front of our hotel in downtown San Jose to get picked up by Pachira to go to Tortuguero. Tortuguero is a beautiful place on the Caribbean coast known for its wildlife and national park. Our transpiration just arrived so let's go and see Tortuguero.
We're at the main dock of Pachira lodge as we're about to go on a boat ride through the national park. We're going to go through the canals and hopefully see a lot of wildlife. It's a beautiful day so let's go.
We're about to take a boat to go to the small town of Tortuguero. We're going to go walk around the beach and see what the town is like. It's very small, it only has about 2000 people.
Another activity that they offer is an easy 1 kilometer walk. It's a great way to also see nature and wildlife.
Today is our last day here in Tortuguero and we're actually about to go take the boat back to La Pavona to head back to San Jose. We had a great time here in Tortuguero and Pachira Lodge. We saw a ton of wildlife and enjoyed a lot of the nature that's around.
Pachira makes it really easy to visit Tortuguero, as they include everything from transportation to food to activities and they have packages from one day to two or three or four or however how long you want to stay.
So if you guys want to learn more information about Tortuguero and Pachira, please click on the links below. I hope you guys enjoyed our video because we absolutely love Tortuguero, it's a magical place in Costa Rica.
Thank you for watching and hope you guys enjoyed the video.

Tortuguero National Park | Costa Rica Nature Vacation in Tortuguero
Tortuguero National Park in Costa Rica
Tortuguero is one of Costa Rica's most popular National Parks. It is a wilderness area with great biological variety. The wildlife is rich and diverse, with eleven different defined habitats.
Strong Caribbean currents have provided a long, straight 22 mile expanse of beach which is a favored nesting ground for sea turtles. Hawks-bill, loggerheads, and Pacific green turtles nest from July through October. The leather-back, the largest sea turtle species in the world, nests from February to July.
Water is an abundant natural resource with up to 240 inches of rainfall per year. An infinite number of interconnected channels, waterways, lagoons and lakes are fed by rivers that carry their inland sediment load to the coast.
Occasionally, the sediment filled plain is interrupted by forested rolling hills, composed of ancient volcanic cinder cones, such as Tortuguero Hill and the Lomas de Sierpe, which looms over 1,000 feet.

Costa Rica Vlog Pt 1 || San Jose to Tortuguero
Thanks to this awesome Groupon deal my best friend and I took a 7-day trip to Costa Rica for Spring break! We started in San Jose, then headed to Tortuguero for a few days, and then ended the trip in La Fortuna. It was sooo relaxing:)
Also, please excuse the shakiness in these videos lol, it was my first time vlogging.
Exploring Costa Rica | Tortuguero, Monteverde & Manuel Antonio
Costa Rica was unlike any other place I'd been. The rainforest was so dense, the cloud forest SO stunning, and the beach was gorgeous, minus the monkeys who tried to steal the boys' toys and I'm convinced were planning to eat us ;) We loved every bit of it and will no doubt be back to explore even more.
We booked our trip through Costa Rica Expeditions, and they couldn't have created a more tailored, thoughtful itinerary for our kids and us. I can not recommend them enough for your next adventure ????:
